Tender description

West Yorkshire Combined Authority (WYCA) as the contracting authority for West Yorkshire Police (WYP) have engaged a Supplier to provide 1 x Manager and 6 x Investigative Staff to support a focused, time-bound intervention aimed at reducing a significant backlog of crime finalisations. West Yorkshire Police has experienced a period of high seasonal demand, which has placed considerable pressure on the Force Crime Management Unit (FCMU). In response, the FCMU pivoted its operational focus toward managing increased appointment volumes, which has inadvertently led to a growing backlog in crime finalisations. The procurement process was conducted via a Further Competition from the CCS Management Consultancy Framework Four (MCF4) Ref: RM6309 Lot 1 Business Consultancy. The Contract is anticipated to commence on 24th November 2025 and the work should be completed within a 10-week period (expiring 30th January 2026). There is provision to extend for a further period, or successive periods, up to 27th February 2026 (if required), at the sole discretion of the Authority.

About the buyer

The West Yorkshire Combined Authority buys as a local government organisation, with its own Commercial and Procurement team supporting colleagues across the authority. Tenders are published through YORtender, the authority's e-procurement system. Some opportunities also appear on Contracts Finder and the Find a Tender Service. Smaller contracts go out as Requests to Quote, with Invitations to Tender used for larger opportunities. External frameworks including the Crown Commercial Service, YPO and NEPO let the authority procure goods, works and services without running a full tender. The team also builds social value into its procurement processes.

UK local government drives £140bn in annual procurement, led by social protection (£66.6bn) and education (£57.1bn).

Over the past 5 years, most of the West Yorkshire Combined Authority's contract awards have been in business services, software and information systems and architectural and engineering services.
